Update Acta Universitatis agriculturae Sueciae
I work at the SLU university in Sweden and we got help from some people here a couple of years ago updating a CSL style file. I wonder if you please could help us to update our CSL style file Acta Universitatis agriculturae Sueciae again so it mirrors the recommendations on https://www.slu.se/en/subweb/library/write-and-cite/writing-references/referenslista-enligt-harvard/? It is polyglot (Swedish and English) and the Swedish recommendation is on https://www.slu.se/site/bibliotek/skriva-och-referera/skriva-referenser/referenslista-enligt-harvard/. We have updated both the recommendation for the referencelist and in-text citations. I have a list of the changes if that would be helpful.
Kind regards,

I updated the most salient points, but didn't go through all minor item types (e.g. didn't do artwork etc.). I'd expect that level of detail for a university style would require either someone from the university implementing it or paying someone to do so.
